1st degree murder of Hells Angel Prospect

Inside Ottawa Valley is reporting that "After eight weeks of testimony and 114 exhibits, an 11-person jury in Perth’s Superior Court found Michael Clairoux, of Nepean, and Lee Marrazzo, of Luskville, Que., guilty of first-degree murder for the death of Beckwith resident Greg Slewidge more than four years ago." 

"The Crown, represented by Matthew Humphreys and Carl Lem, claimed Clairoux and Marrazzo ambushed, beat, strangled and stabbed Slewidge inside his rented property at 1864 Scotch Corners Rd., a legal marijuana grow operation, on Sept. 23, 2020. He was discovered the following day."

"The court heard Slewidge was a Hells Angels Motorcycle Club Ottawa Nomads prospect, and he was days away from becoming a full-patch member at the time of his death. He was previously affiliated with the Red Devils MC — the principal support club of the Hells Angels."

"Clairoux is an ex-Hells Angels member. The two men and Marrazzo were associates. Prosecutors argued a third person, a member of the Red Devils, who has not been charged, directed the hit on Slewidge after a falling out."

Greg Slewidge "was the son of Lyndon Slewidge,a former Sault Ste. Marie Police Service officer who sang the anthem at Soo Greyhounds’ games for 15 years. The senior Slewidge joined Ontario Provincial Police in 1992 and sang the national anthem at Ottawa Senators’ home games for more than 20 years."
